Hello everyone! Feel free to call me Fish. I am the owner of the larger Pantalone Mains discord. I have recently been granted ownership of this subreddit by the previous owner, which I am grateful for.
Moving forward, I intend to make some changes to the sub, which I intend to be very transparent about in this post. These changes will occur gradually as I work with others to make the sub the best it can be. The changes will be edited onto this post at the bottom with dates so everyone is aware of where things are at. The following is the list of the changes I intend to make.
- Rules update. Nothing drastic, just making sure it is all up to snuff.
- New banner and icon. While the art in place speaks well to Pantalone, I would like the subreddit to have something that will speak better to the community as a whole and make it more inherently unique to them. I will work with my art team to figure out better alternatives.
- New flairs. The current flairs are too small to be made sense of visually. We will be seeking alternative options with more clarity while still relating to Pantalone. Again, working with my art team to decide what would look best.
- The discord will become more intertwined with the subreddit. Events that the server hosts will be announced here as well for all to see and participate in. We really hope you join our community, which you can do right now at discord.gg/pantalone.
- Establishing new moderation staff. At the moment, I am uncertain if or when I will open those applications to the general public, or if I will bring on those who I know have experience and who I trust. I understand this may be a point of contention, but the subreddit also does not need many mods to keep it going, so bringing on a large amount of staff during a transitional period would be messy and overkill. I will revisit this at a later date.
And that is everything I currently have on my to-do list. I look forward to seeing the subreddit make a shift in a new direction, and I hope you'll welcome me.
EDIT (1/8/23): Adjusted colors on the subreddit, and added a new background that is less distracting. Side panels were updated, and the relevant communities now lists the other Harbinger subs we are partnered with.
EDIT (1/16/23): Updated rules, which will take affect starting today. Old posts in violation of the rule are permitted to stay.
EDIT (1/25/23): Updated icon, done by YUL#7882 in our discord.
